Work Trip | Dogsledding in Alaska

The people at the front desk suggested I head to the museum or buy a cheap sled at Walmart and go sledding in Kincaid Park. Instead, I called the *only* winter tour people in Anchorage open in November and ask them wants going on today....
 Dogsledding! Dario was my guide and told all sorts of fun things about doing the Iditarod, how Alaska huskies are bred to be marathon athletes (not body builders), and showed me the puppies!
 All these little guys want to do it "pull". Every time we stopped, they started to bark, eat snow (to cool off), and pull anyway. Good thing the dog sled has breaks.

Puppies! & very well behaved! They wouldn't leave the kennel without Dario giving the ok.
